February 8

This very awesome you tube page has tons of great tutorials 🙂 I definitely need something to do while I sit during Jaia’s dance classes. Two a week so that can give me 3 uninterrupted hours of crafting time!

Now I just have to find the time to sit and watch the videos 🙂

I finished that baby/lap blanket I was thinking about making last week. It is very cute and simple – I love vintage textiles and need to get my hands on more! I think I may take some yarn and sew through both layers and “tie” it together – I’m pleased with how it turned out.

I also finished the bath and body “kit” for Row’s Pony Club auction. Each family is expected to solicit five donations from businesses to donate for the fundraiser. I hate soliciting. So I usually make my donations. This year I made a very pretty cowl, this bath and body love kit and I purchased some basket filler items they asked for. Shampoo, conditioner and boxed baking mixes. There is Lavender bath salt, candles :), scrubby, and 2 types of homemade body bar lotions. One with olive oil and one without. I love the packaging I discovered and May, May create more of these kits to start an etsy shop. Decisions, decisions.

This weekend is busy, as they all are in February – Pony Club quiz practice and an extra dance class since so many have been cancelled by SNOW!

Stay warm and bright blessings!

I’ve tried crocheting, but unlike knitting, I seem to no have no talent for it. One thing I’ve been doing when I’m away from my machine is English paper piecing. I love it! I’ll just sit there and fold and stitch does little hexies and diamonds. I just stack them up and decide later what I’ll do with them. Great way to get rid of fabric scraps from quilting.

But I have checked on some of the videos an maybe I should give it an honest try…
